At the beginning, Emperor LiZong was very happy on his 60th birthday, but later, Zhao Yi, the son of King Rong, and Zhao Yong, the eldest son of King Han, disappeared.

He went from happy to unhappy.

On the way back, Queen Xie Daoqing accompanied him.

As she walked along, she could not help but nag, saying that Zhao Yi, the son of King Rong, and Zhao Yong, the eldest son of King Han, should not have performed any drama on his 60th birthday, otherwise, such a thing would not have happened on such a festive event.

Originally in a bad mood, Queen Xie Daoqing nagged endlessly, Emperor LiZong's mood was even worse.

He frowned and said, "sage, you go back to your own Palace first. I suddenly remember that there are still some things to deal with, so I won't go to you."

"Officer, if you have something to do, just go ahead." Queen Xie Daoqing.

Then she sent emperor LiZong away.

At the beginning, he went to the direction of the imperial study.

After walking for a while, he left the empress Xie daoqingyuan. Then he turned around and went to Ziqi.

As a new favorite of the emperor, Ziqi was also invited to the celebration of emperor LiZong's 60th birthday. However, Ziqi didn't take part in the celebration because of his discomfort.

Although Ziqi was born in FengChen, she was really a very smart person. In addition, Jia Sidao, the prime minister, described her as Zhang Yihong's daughter.

Since he entered the palace, Zhang Yihong, the Minister of the Ministry of household affairs, has often entered the harem in the name of her godfather, explaining to her how to live in the deep palace.

Ziqi noble know, now he is in favor of emperor zongzong, is in the limelight.

As the saying goes, if she makes too much publicity, she will be envied by more people in the palace.

To that extent, she did not have a deep foundation in the palace, so it was hard to guarantee that she would not be harmed by Emperor LiZong and her women.

In this case, Ziqi noble people think that the more people there are, the less she should appear and try to keep a low profile.

Today, instead of attending emperor LiZong's birthday, he stayed in his palace and painted.

As soon as the painting was finished, someone outside called out, "here comes the emperor."

As soon as he heard this voice, he knew it was the voice of Dong songchen, the chief manager of the University.

Ziqi noble did not dare to neglect, immediately put the pen in his hand on the penholder, slightly decorated for a while, went out, knelt on the ground, said: "I have seen the official."

"Get up!" Li Zong emperor road.

With that, he stepped into Ziqi's palace.

"What were you doing just now?" Emperor LiZong asked Ziqi how to be a noble man.

Ziqi noble also did not hide, replied: "Qiqu official, my concubine was just doing a painting."

"Are you ready?" Emperor LiZong asked.

Ziqi picked up the painting from the table, opened it, handed it to Emperor LiZong, and replied, "just finished. Please enjoy it."

After taking the painting, Emperor LiZong came to the window and looked at it carefully by the light outside.

After reading it, she praised: "what a birthday picture. It's really lifelike, as if it's real."

"Officer, I'm flattered. I haven't painted for a long time. I'm a little unfamiliar with my hands. I know very well that this painting is of average level." Ziqi values humanity.

Emperor LiZong listened to her and said, "princess, you don't have to be too modest."

"This painting is really good." He added.

Ziqi said: "if you like this painting, it's fine."

"Is this painting painted for me by Princess Ai?" Emperor LiZong listened to him and asked.

Ziqi replied: "exactly."

"Official family, you have great kindness to me. Today is your 60th birthday. I have no filial piety to you, so I made this painting for you." She added.

Emperor LiZong said, "I don't care about gold, silver and jewels, and I don't like them. But this painting of Aifei is made with your own heart, which is far better than the birthday gift of the courtiers."

"My Lord, I'm not a member of the court. The paintings I sit on can be compared with the gifts given by those adults." After listening to his words, Ziqi said.

After hearing this, Emperor LiZong said, "the mountain is not high, the water is not deep."

"Princess Ai, what would you like for your birthday present?" He asked again.

After hearing this, Ziqi knelt down on the ground again and said, "you are very kind to me. I don't want anything here."

"Happy is the contented." Emperor LiZong bent down to help Ziqi up and said, "I'm sorry.

He added: "women like you are in need in the harem. It seems that I am right to take you into the harem."

"Official family, you saved my concubine from the sea of misery. You are my benefactor." Ziqi values humanity.Emperor LiZong said, "today is my 60th birthday. I'll give you a happy day."

"What do you want for your concubines, official family?" Ziqi asked.

Emperor LiZong replied, "I have decided that from today on, I will appoint you as my imperial concubine."

"Assist the queen in handling the daily affairs of the Imperial Palace in the harem." After thinking about it, he said..

It's rare to be promoted from a noble to a concubine in such a short time.

After hearing this, Ziqi said, "it's not suitable, is it an official?"

"Love your concubine, your talent and virtue are worthy of this concubine's position." The emperor replied.

He asked again, "why not?"

"It didn't take long for my concubine to enter this harem and become a noble. Now I don't have any credit. You are promoted to be a noble concubine again. I'm afraid that her concubines in the Palace won't accept this." Ziqi values humanity.

Emperor LiZong snorted and said, "if anyone in the palace is not convinced, let her come to me."

Speaking of this, Ziqi noble is not easy to say anything more. She knew that emperor LiZong would be angry if she tried again.

"There are more officials." Ziqi noble kowtow, Xie LiZong emperor road.

Emperor LiZong said, "get up, don't kowtow all the time."

"That's what you deserve, princess." She added.

Ziqi asked: "the official family, you have made my concubine your concubine. Should I go to Zhonggong immediately to thank you?"

According to the rules of the harem, Xie Daoqing is the head of the harem. The newly appointed concubine should go to the middle palace and kowtow.

"Aifei, according to the rules." The emperor replied.

After that, he changed his tone and said, "today I want to stay with you and let you accompany me. You don't have to go to Zhonggong to express your thanks. Just wait until tomorrow morning."

With that, he ordered the eunuch Dong songchen, the general manager of the Imperial Palace, to pass his imperial edict to the central palace.

After hearing this, Dong songchen, the eunuch in charge of the Imperial Palace, agreed and went to the empress Xie Daoqing.

Empress Xie Daoqing is not young now. On her 60th birthday, she accompanied emperor LiZong for a long time. When she returned to her own palace, she was very tired.

He asked his maid to bring a bowl of bird's nest porridge. After drinking it, he would lie on the soft ground and have a rest.

Also sleep less than an hour, her close maid came to her side, wake her up in a low voice.

Queen Xie Daoqing frowned and asked him what was the matter.

"Niang Niang, manager Dong is here." Close to the palace maid way.

Queen Xie Daoqing asked, "did he say something?"

"It's to deliver the edict." The maid in waiting replied.

After hearing this, Queen Xie Daoqing said, "how long has it been since I was separated from the official family? How can the official family come to preach the imperial edict?"

"Let him in!" She said to her maid.

Soon, Dong songchen, the eunuch in charge of the Imperial Palace, came to her under the leadership of empress Xie Daoqing.

"There is a decree in the Lord!" Dong songchen, the eunuch in charge of the interior, stood in the middle of the room and said.

Empress Xie Daoqing and her maids knelt down and said, "I'll take the order!"

Naturally, the content of this edict is to say that Ziqi was newly granted the title of imperial concubine. She will come back tomorrow to express her gratitude to Zhonggong.

"This coquettish fox is too crazy. He has been granted a concubine. He has to wait until tomorrow to come back to our palace to express his thanks." Queen Xie Daoqing is very angry.

Seeing this situation, Dong songchen, the eunuch in charge of the University, decided to add fuel to the fire.

He said, "it's not true, but there has never been such a rule in the palace."

"Mr. Dong, you are the general manager of the imperial palace. You are a confidant of the official family. The official family asked you to pass such an imperial edict. Why don't you remind the emperor in advance?" The eunuch of the Song Dynasty began to blame the empress.

Dong songchen, the eunuch in charge of the Imperial Palace, replied, "empress, I'm really wronged."

"What's wrong with you?" Queen Xie Daoqing asked.

Dong songchen, the eunuch in charge of the Imperial Palace, asked: "although the old slave is only the manager of the harem, it's just a slave. If the officials want to issue such an imperial edict, how dare the old slave, as a slave, say that the imperial edict of the officials is not right?"

Although his words are to deal with queen Xie Daoqing, they are reasonable.

Listen to him say so, Queen Xie Daoqing nature also can't pick out what thorn.

Seeing that she did not speak, Dong songchen, the eunuch in charge of the Imperial Palace, said, "in fact, I am very angry to spread such an imperial edict."

"It's really a bit shameful that you don't pay attention to empress Ziqi after she entered the palace for a few days. In this harem, even the officials have always been polite to you and never neglected you in etiquette." Da Nei is in charge of eunuch road.As soon as he said this, empress Xie Daoqing was even more angry. He reached out and threw the cup on the table to the place. He said, "this coquettish fox, if our palace doesn't show her some color, she thinks our palace is bullying."

"Empress, I have a word of advice." The eunuch Dong songchen, the general manager of the Imperial College, saw that she was even more angry. He was secretly pleased and said, "I'm not happy.

"What do you want to persuade the empress of Qing Dynasty?" she asked

"With respect to the old slave, at the moment, Ziqi is in the limelight, and the empress doesn't want to have a direct conflict with him, otherwise..." The way of eunuch Dong songchen, who is in charge of the Imperial Palace, wants to say and stop.

Queen Xie Daoqing asked: "otherwise, what will happen?"

"The official wants to spoil the princess Ziqi. If he knows that you have a conflict with her, he may blame you." The eunuch in charge of the Imperial Palace seems to be very concerned about reminding the queen Xie Daoqing.

Empress Xie Daoqing said, "this palace is the head of the harem. How can you be afraid of her coquettish fox?"

"I'd like to have a look at this palace. Clean up this coquettish Fox and see what the officials can do with this palace." She added.

This result is exactly what Dong songchen, the eunuch in charge of the Imperial Palace, expected.

Among the concubines in this harem, they always live in harmony, so there won't be so many concubines to ask Dong songchen to do things.

Once there was a conflict, he became a hot potato.

In order to wait for some inside information, or to hope that the eunuch Dong songchen, the head of the Imperial College, could stand on their side, they would often look at the eunuch Dong songchen, the head of the Imperial College.

Dong songchen, the eunuch in charge of the Imperial Palace, has experienced this for so many years.

The eunuch Dong songchen, the general manager of the Imperial Palace, said, "empress, I suddenly think of a person?"

"Who is it?" Queen Xie Daoqing asked after listening.

Dong songchen, the eunuch in charge of the Imperial Palace, replied, "the imperial concubine Jia in the old days."

"Lao Nu is really a little worried that this princess Ziqi will become the second princess Jia." He added.

Jia Guifei is the elder sister of the prime minister Jia Sidao. In the harem, there was a trend to replace the queen Xie Daoqing. The queen Xie Daoqing wasted the strength of the eldest, and then secretly cleaned up Jia Guifei.

"You really have a reason to worry about this. Ziqi says that it's not the power arranged by Jia Sidao and Zhang Yihong in the harem." Queen Xie Daoqing.

Dong songchen, the eunuch in charge of the Imperial Palace, said: "empress dowager, Jia Xiang and Zhang Shangshu pushed their own candidates for crown prince in the previous dynasty, and now they have their own power in the harem."

"They are pressing on the queen step by step." He added.

When Dong songchen, the eunuch in charge of the Imperial Palace, said this, he actually thought of the third way to discuss with his ally Ding Daquan.

For their future, the two of them must encourage the queen Xie Daoqing to put forward her own candidate for crown prince.

Sure enough, after listening to the eunuch Dong songchen, the head of the Imperial Palace, the empress Xie Daoqing sighed and said, "of course this palace knows."

"For the palace, if it wants to fight back against these two people fundamentally, it needs to launch its own candidate for crown prince!" She added.

Dong songchen, the eunuch in charge of the Imperial Palace, said: "since you know, madam, you should select them earlier. Although there are many children in the clan, there are not many of them who are really the candidates for the crown prince."

"Of course, this palace knows about it. At present, many of the children of the imperial clan just know how to eat, drink and have fun. They have no talent at all!" Queen Xie Daoqing.

She asked again, "Mr. Dong, do you have any suitable person?"
